The Story
Tempranillo has thick skin that allows acid retention, and it’s low susceptibility to disease and pests makes it a sustainable choice for growers. It’s juicy, rustic fruit profile and food-friendly nature makes it a top drop no matter the occasion.
The Wine
This tempranillo has a medium body & high acidity that gives a refreshing & lively character. The palate is packed with cherry & raspberry, as well as notes of herbs, earth, & spices. Subtle vanilla & toast undertones complement the wine’s rustic tannins.
The Potential
The fine tannin structure and natural acidity gives the wine the potential to age for 5-10 years. The lush fruit and spice will begin to transform to secondary characterisitics of leather, mushroom and dried fruit.
The Match
With its juicy black berry and blackcurrant flavors, Tempranillo pairs perfectly with roasted meats, paella, hard cheeses, and tomato-based dishes like pasta or pizza. Its rustic tannins add depth, making each sip a delightful complement to hearty fare.
